FAQs

Can I use this Polyfilla outdoors?

No, this Polycell Quick Drying Polyfilla is specifically designed for indoor use only. It is not suitable for outdoor applications.

How deep can I fill a hole with this product?

For best results, fill holes up to 5mm deep in a single application. For deeper repairs, apply in multiple thin layers, allowing each layer to dry before applying the next.

How long does it take to dry?

The filler is surface dry in as little as 5 minutes, depending on conditions. It can typically be painted over in approximately 20 to 30 minutes, though this can vary with temperature and humidity.

What surfaces can I use this filler on?

This multipurpose filler is suitable for use on plaster, wood, masonry, and stone.

How do I clean my tools after use?

Clean your filling knife and any other tools with warm water immediately after use, before the filler has a chance to dry.

What is the best way to store the filler?

To keep the filler fresh, ensure the membrane is replaced correctly, pressed onto the surface, and the lid is closed tightly. Store in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures and frost.

Can I sand the filler once dry?

Yes, if necessary, you can lightly sand the filler once it is fully dry to achieve a perfectly smooth and level finish before painting.

Troubleshooting

Filler is shrinking or cracking.

This may occur if the hole is too deep for a single application. For repairs over 5mm, build up the filler in thin layers, allowing each to dry thoroughly before applying the next.

Filler is not drying.

Ensure adequate ventilation in the room. Drying times can be longer in very humid or cold conditions. Check that the product has not passed its expiry date if stored for a long time.

Surface is not smooth after filling.

Allow the filler to dry completely, then lightly sand the area with fine-grit sandpaper until smooth and flush with the surrounding surface.

Product is difficult to spread.

Ensure the filler is at room temperature. If it feels stiff, a very small amount of water might help, but use sparingly to avoid compromising the filler's integrity. Ensure the tub has been stored correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Surface Preparation:

Ensure the surface and holes to be filled are clean, dry, and free from loose material. For nail or screw heads, apply a suitable metal primer before filling.

Application:

  1. Apply the filler to the hole using a filling knife, smoothing it off to be level with the surrounding surface.
  2. For deeper repairs (above 5mm), apply in layers, allowing each layer to dry before adding the next.
  3. If necessary, lightly sand the area once fully dry to achieve a smooth finish.

Compatibility:

Suitable for use on plaster, wood, masonry, and stone surfaces for indoor applications.

Care and Storage:

To prevent the product from drying out in the tub, ensure the membrane is replaced correctly, pressed onto the surface, and the lid is closed tightly. Store in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures and frost. Clean tools with warm water immediately after use.
